Though the two were close allies during the Cold War, relations between them have. Hundreds of thousands of North Koreans were educated in the USSR.

Why is North Korea a communist country?

In 1945, the Korean Peninsula was divided between a U.S. controlled South Korea and a Soviet controlled North Korea. In the late 1940s, the U.S. kept troops in South Korea but turned over the government to the South Koreans. The Soviets removed troops from North Korea but created a puppet government under the control of a ancestor of Kim Jong Il (they still gave weapons and equipment). As a result, North Korea got a communist government (from Soviet influence) and South Korea got a democratic government (from U.S. influence).


What kind of government did North Korea have after World War 2?

Right after the Atomic bomb was dropped on Japan in August 1945, the Soviet Union (Russia) declared war on Japan, and invaded Japanese conquered territory, of which Korea was one. After WWII, the Soviets took North Korea and the US (free world) took South Korea. Five years later, the Soviets supplied North Korea and supported them in their efforts to re-take their southern cousin, during the Korean War 1950-1953. Which they failed to do.
